FrostWire is a free and open source file sharing alternative to LimeWire. The latest version works with both BitTorrent and Gnutella so you can download almost any file you are looking for. FrostWire also features online chat rooms where users can have conversations about the latest movies, music, and TV shows and make new friends in the P2P community.

Thousands of volunteers around the world have contributed code and expertise to make FrostWire one of the most advanced P2P file sharing applications. For example, BitTorrent support is powered by the open source Vuze/Azureus engine. FrostWire works on any operating system (Windows, Mac, and Linux) because it is programmed in Java.

Fast Searches

Finding files with FrostWire is faster than ever with improved BitTorrent and Gnutella protocols. Downloading files is also secure since, by default, file transfers are encrypted.

Open Source

Frostwire is open source software, released under the GNU General Public License. That means anyone can take the source code, improve upon it, and offer a better version of the software.

Easy to Use

FrostWire is simple to use. Enter the file name you are looking for and hit Search. To download, double-click on a file in the search results listing. If you want, you can even customize FrostWire with unique skins.

Additional Features

FrostWire is also iTunes compatible, available on Android smartphones, and supports even more connections than before. FrostWire is free and includes features that other P2P programs offer in their Pro versions.
